First challenges for 2011

You must be thinking Wow 2 posts in 2 days.
Well Hubby is at work and i'm on my own (DD1 is a sleep in the family room) so i have been doing some scrapping. Oh yes, i nearly fell off my chair when i finished the LO too.
so here are what i have done in the last to days.

The first two are the back and front of The 52 question challenge that Marie at Artistic Document is holding. Each Sunday she will be posting a question and the criteria for each tag. This first Question is What i wish for in 2011 (not a resolution). the criteria was Collage. So the first pic shows the back and my answer.



this second Pic shows the front and the question.

I used BasicGrey's Chablis form the Periphery range on the front and back and Kaiser Cle from the Le Chateau range, back and front. I also used Kaiser's key, lace and flowers on the front from the Devonshire collection embellishment pack. the flower on the back i made using T!m Holtz's Tattered flowers die and paper from an old book. spritzed them with water. scrunched them and added a kaiser brad int he middle then inked the edges in distress ink, faded jeans.

No this Lo is for the challenge set by our Guest designer Noriel. MY sister-in-law. I was so proud when it was announced that she had been chosen so i though it fir for her challenge to be the very first Lo i did for this year. Her challenge was to use only 6 inches of the paper, top, bottom, left or right, but it could only be in 6 inches. We could use as many embellishments as we wanted BUT NO flowers were allowed. she's tough! So a few girls did mention that it was a good way to use up papers with patterns down one side. I love those girls and their ideas. Well i had plenty of papers given to me last mothers day that i could use. I finally settled on this one and i loved the picture of the boys in our family. It was taken at my nephew's 30th birthday back in August 2010. It's not often that we all get together like this so photo op in the making.

Well the child (26) is awake and will no doubt want some attention before she goes out.

Thanks for Looking.
